#220. Write This: Christmas Carols
In honor of the Christmas season, the Ladies are welcoming listener contributions to a new “Write This:” creative challenge, this time featuring original Christmas carol lyrics to familiar tunes.
What makes a Christmas carol different from a Christmas hymn? Can you set a Christmas hymn to the tune of “Rudolph, the Red-Nosed Reindeer”? Why are timeless and original Christmas carol lyrics SO HARD to write? And which intrepid Lutheran lady listeners rose to the challenge?
Referenced in this episode:
- Martin Luther Yells About Inferior Anglican Christmas Hymns (youtube.com)
- Horus Ruins Christmas (youtube.com)
- Auguries of Innocence by William Blake | Poetry Foundation
- Carols for Choirs - Wikipedia
